voide Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links. duuuuude... what a mess. like i said, i didn't follow him, so i don't know the real story here (about the cancer & all that). but from this statement, if SH really commit a fraud, and indeed there's no real Santino Hassell, i think we will soon find out. i mean, those publishers will have to do something about this right? or if they don't i believe there would be a big consequences (drop in sell etc.) are they willing to cover up this & take the risk or investigate & let people know the truth. hmm.. i'm curious as heck hehe..

voide Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links. i hope too. i mean, the whole plot is neat & well planned if SH is not real. SH even went to book signing/attended interviews. look at his website. if that person imposed as SH i thought it's funny as hell. how can all these happened w/out anyone noticing until now? they deserved an oscar if all these were indeed fabricated & people didn't realized it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, it still remains to see if it is true or not but Riptide has Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links. now that they ended their contract with Santino... this doesn't look good at all.

I don't know if I feel bad or not. If He is a catfish, then no. But if this is all a misunderstanding, then it's a sad mess... Yes, Megan Erickson defended him.

voide Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links. ah.. it's a nice tactic on SH's side tbh.. retreated from all this whole mess. either all these are true or misunderstanding, i believe there's way can be achieved to solve it. social media can be informative & toxic at the same time. i hope everything can be resolved in peaceful. yeah, i didn't see any Ais's statement anywhere too. if you do, share it with me? via pm can do too. thanks!

Riki Posted March 9, 2018 Author Share Posted March 9, 2018 And the truth came to light, Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links. . Does Santino Hassell exist? No. Is Santino Hassell just one person? No, they are 2. A married couple. The woman wrote, and the husband was the face. Did one of them or both have cancer? No. Do they have children? No. Do they struggle with money? No. Are all the essays he wrote about the hardships of living as a bi man lies? Yes. Dreamspinner and Riptide ended their contracts with them. They not only invented the life of a person to get money by pity. They also did a lot of bad things to other people. Last year the career of an author ended because of Santino's words (I knew about this, what I didn't know was that everything he said of that author were lies). A young guy shared his story with Santino: And, finally, I'm sure you want to ask, 'How do you know everything is true?', And prepare yourself, they wrote an Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links. for everything they did. Santino's co-writers are writing theirs, as well. I don't ask authors to share their private life, but if they do it willingly, I expect it to be true. And more if they will write about the suffering they're supposedly going through... I feel disgusted. And I don't want to be dramatic, I don't like dramatic people, but this hit me so hard... Sorry.

Saga Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 ...And I so did say his made-up stuff and lies, and all are someone else's pain and hardship. Who knew the dude actually made his books sell by exposing people's pain. -slow clapping- Someone should message Noah and tell him to get these sickos in the court, because after everything dies out - they might eventually repeat it under a different author's name.

I am one of his/her victims, financial in my case, I have been discussing about writing a warning thread with Key, Saga, and Suida to find the right way to approach the topic just in case I misunderstood something, or the author was a cyber bullying victim him/herself, but seems it already came to light.
